Tomorrow’s PracticalESG.com Webcast: Understanding the CSRD and its Impacts on US Companies

The EU Green Deal includes multiple pieces of legislation aimed at making Europe the first carbon-neutral continent by 2050. The CSRD is a key element of this legislation that requires companies to make robust disclosures. The law contains extra-territorial provisions that impact in-scope companies headquartered outside of Europe. The CSRD carries hefty reporting obligations, and in-scope companies should be working toward compliance today to avoid a potential regulatory crisis in the future.
